9 Boat Tours & Water Sports in Mainland That You Shouldn't Miss

October 7, 2021 Jasper Kershner

The aptly named Mainland is the main island of Orkney, a collection of Scottish islands with serious Viking cred. On West Mainland you’ll find the Heart of Neolithic Orkney, prehistoric ruins that include a chambered tomb, stone ceremonial circles, and Skara Brae, a well-preserved Neolithic village. Cap off your visit with a hoppy glug from the Orkney Brewery. Over on the East side, marvel at a collapsed sea cave known as The Gloup, take a provincial stroll through St. Mary’s Village or just dip your toes in at Mill Sands or Dingieshowe Beach.

My name is Kristian and I love nothing more than sharing my passion of the sea and my home with others. I was brought up in a cottage on the shores of Elwick Bay on the island of Shapinsay playing in or on the sea on all types of craft. being brought up in a family of sea faires certainly helped my passion and understanding of the local waters. I am currently a moderate water sea kayak coach and an advanced sea kayak leader. I love nothing more than sharing my passion with others
